How do you format hard drive on acer 5220 to get rid of vista?

You'd need to boot from some other drive and then use a utility to format the hard drive.
One that you can get for free is called DBAN ("Darik's Boot and Nuke"), which will not only format the drive but completely erase everything that's on it.
You'd then need to get some other installation media to install a new OS on the hard drive.
